PhotoKing Pro-Lab by digiDirect is a film developing lab in Sydney, Australia, offering C-41 color negative, 120 medium format, and printing. It's one of the broader service offerings in the local market.
Current pricing at PhotoKing Pro-Lab by digiDirect: standard C-41 develop + scan at A$26/roll/roll and a hi-res scan tier at A$35.00/roll/roll. Additional notes: 35MM Film Processing (C-41 assumed): Develop Only (36exp) A$12.00/roll. Develop & Scan (4.5mb scans) (36exp) A$26.00/roll. Upsize Scan Size to 18mb (36exp) +A$9.00. Total for Hi-Res 35mm (18mb) is A$26.00 + A$9.00 = A$35.00/roll. However, the 'Develop & Scan (4.5mb scans)' is listed as A$26.00 for 36exp, and 'Upsize Scan Size to 18mb' is an additional A$9.00. This implies the A$26.00 is for standard scan, and A$35.00 for hi-res. But the 4.5mb scan is too low for 'standard' definition. Given the 'Develop & Scan (4.5mb scans)' is the only combined option, and the 'Upsize Scan Size to 18mb' is an add-on, we will consider the 18mb scan as Hi-Res. The 4.5mb scan is too small for 'Standard' definition, so we will not list it as such. The 18mb scan is considered Hi-Res. 120MM Film Processing (C-41 assumed): Develop Only A$15.00/roll. Develop & Scan (4.5mb scans) A$30.00/roll. Upsize Scan Size to 18mb +A$8.00. Total for Hi-Res 120mm (18mb) is A$30.00 + A$8.00 = A$38.00/roll. Similar to 35mm, the 18mb scan is considered Hi-Res. Negative and Positive Slides (cut or mounted) Scans (scan only prices): Low Res Scans A$3.50/scan (6mb scans @ 300dpi, prints up to 6x8"). Medium Res Scans A$10.00/scan (55mb scans @ 300dpi, prints up to 12x18"). High Res Scans A$30.00/scan (150mb scans @ 300dpi, prints up to 20x30"). Extra High Res Scans A$36.00/scan (340mb scans @ 300dpi, prints up to 30x45"). These are per-scan prices, not per-roll. Minimum charge for photo scanning is A$10.00. All prices include GST. All prices exclude cost of printing. All scans saved as .jpg files (saved as tiff files on request). Transfer files to your USB (or you can purchase one instore), or we can forward to you via we transfer.
